I had to put this here, with all the fuss these days around silverlight being a big attack on flash, this proved to be very funny.
You've heard of the new Touchscreen desktops microsoft is marketing, well they have this very cool and well designed web page to advertise it. You can find that here http://www.microsoft.com/surface/index.html if you wish to check it.
Now the reason why i'm posting this it's simple and straight. Microsoft doesn't trust their own framework, otherwise why in the world wouldn't they use their own frameworks?!
Well if you're trying to guess, you are probably right, the website for their new touchscreens is made in flash!!!
Now what a draw back that is to the Silverlight teams and developers learning the new framework, don't you think?
I guess the question "Is Silverlight ready to be used in commercial web-sites?" is answered.
In this blog you'll find some technological updates and comments to events in the software engineering world.
